So you want them to fly over someone else's home... just not yours. Is that correct?

If it was a Motorway or flyover that had suddenly appeared at the end of your road you'd probably have issue the flight path over your house is no different.


We have never been asked if we minded aircraft to suddenly start flying over ED we have had no say in this life changing motorway in the sky.



I don't think it's a lot to ask... I'd like them fly where they were they were flying 50 year prior to dec 2012. IE 1-2-3-4 etc miles further north.

But the point is that they haven't "suddenly started" flying over ED. They've been doing it for the 20 years I've been here and I (like most people) haven't noticed an appreciable (or indeed any) difference.

Actually if there was a Motorway linking Peckham to the M25 I'd be all for it. Anything to avoid Catford.


The planes have to fly somewhere - we all use them. I expect you'll find fellow plane-phobes are everywhere, including 1-4 miles north of here.

Really .. I'm happy for you to see it like that ... but for me it's a completely new disturbance and I've also been here for over 20 years. Maybe your hearing isn't as good or isn't tuned into the same annoyance frequency ..


For me it's a living nightmare ..


I went to a meeting early in the year over in Brockley between Heathrow and Brockley residents and there were a lot of Brockley residents who also say things have changed since Dec 2012.



If you don't have a problem then that REALLY great for you .... !

Fazer, what about people (and there will be lots of them) who have bought properties 1-2-3-4 miles away from your house since Dec 2012. Is it fair that they should suddenly have planes flying over their place when they bought a home with no planes flying over? (not that I think you can buy a house anywhere in London that has no planes flying over)

Not really they were in someone else's back yard for many many years why should I suddenly have them in my back yard?



It's the change after many many years which is unreasonable. It's the change which hasn't been announced just forced on US.


how do you see that as nimbyism ... ?


I think funnelling every flight into Heathrow over ED is unreasonable unnecessary and an infringement of my human rights to a quiet life especially as prior to DEC 2012 I had bought into an area which was quiet.


To suddenly be invaded with constant aircraft noise is unacceptable nimby ... ummm

The aircraft had been flying over those areas for decades !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



Like Vauxhaull flights have been flying over Vauxhaull for EVER !!!!!!



They previously flew over the Thames and headed to Heathrow turning over Vauxhaull


Now they Fly over Blackheath Lewisham Brockley Forest Hill East / Dulwich etc etc etc



There's been lots of new paper articles in those areas about the disturbance...

If it isn't a problem for YOU then why would make a comment?


Is it to shut up those of us who are affected ?


Are you concerned about the impact it will have on your property values or some other negative vibe it gives ED ?



Very odd.

If I move to London and buy a place (since December 2012, and then planes suddenly star flying over my home, I'm not going to care what they did before December 2012. Your own arguments are contradictory.


And Human Rights? Really?????

Well I guess but it's very very annoying when after decades of quiet one feels suddenly as though they are living

Experiencing

the attack on Pearl Harbor groung hog of December 7, 1941....

Only slower and with jet aircraft and no bombs. So I guess it's ridiculous I should just live with the noise at least my physical life isn't at risk other than the potential for the noise to increase my chances of hear attack.

btw you trying to wind me up isn't helping mi ticker either ... :)

Fazer, I think what people are saying is that it sounds like quite an overreaction and an obsession, as it doesn't appear to be a problem for most people. Therefore your greatest problem might be with your reaction to the noise, rather than the noise itself.


Mention of "the attack on Pearl Harbour" as being similar would indicate the above to be true.

You need to get a sense of humour Pearl Harbour :)



I am definitely more sensitive to the noise but that doesn't mean it isn't there or that it has increased. since dec 2012



Unfortunately there is no record of noise pollution levels or aircraft noise impact on SE22.



All I know is that I suffer and a few others also suffer.


Just because a bigger % don't suffer doesn't mean I shouldn't, unless you are using some odd logic?

Looking at http://www.flightradar24.com/51.46,-0.17/13#./12?&_suid=141276998360509226923015083177


Today is quiet westerly landing have resumed and they are flying over the Thames so ED almost ZERO noise


IE how it was pre Dec 2012

    • The lack of affordable housing is down to Thatcher's promoting sale of council properties. When I was working, I had to deal with many families/older folk/ disabled folk in inferior housing. The worst ones were ex council properties purchased by their tenants  with a very high discount who then sold on for a profit. The new owners frequently rented out at exorbitant prices and failed to maintain the properties. I remember a gentleman who needed to be visited by a district nurse daily becoming very upset as he rented a room in an ex council flat and shared kitchen and bathroom with 6 other people  (it was a 3 bed flat) the landlord did not allow visitors to the flat and this gut was frightened he would be evicted if the nurse visited daily. Unfortunately, the guy was re admitted to hospital and ended up in a care home as he could not receive medical help at home.   Private developers  are not keen on providing a larger percentage of 'social housing' as it dents their profits. Also a social rent is still around £200 plus a week
    • Hello, I was wondering if others have had experience of roof repairs and guarantees. A while back, we had a water leak come through in our top floor room.  A roofer came and went out on the roof to take a look - they said it was to do with a leak near the chimney.   They did some rendering around the chimney and this cost £1800 plus £750 for scaffolding (so £2,550 total).  They said the work came with a 10 year guarantee. About a year later, there was another leak on the same wall, which looked exactly the same size and colour as the previous leak. But it was about 2 metres away from it, on the other side of a window.  I contacted the roofer about this new leak, thinking it would be covered by the guarantee. However, he said the new leak was due to a different and unrelated problem, and so was not covered by the guarantee. This new leak, he said, was due to holes in the felt underneath the tiles. He said there are holes in the felt all over the roof (so if this was the cause, I expect the first leak may have been caused by that too - but he didn't mention the holes in the felt for the first repair). It feels like the 10-year guarantee doesn't mean much at all.  I realise that the guarantee couldn't cover all future problems with the roof, but where do you draw the line with what's reasonable?  Is it that a leak is only covered if an identical leak happens in exactly the same place?  There were no terms and conditions with the guarantee, which I didn't question at the time.  
    • I always like Redemptions coffee though I've not visted for awhile..Romeo Jones was always my 1st choice for takeout Coffee Redemption 2nd. What IS with all these independent Yoga and Pilates Studios? Theres one on London Rd in Forest Hill (Mind) thats recently opened and then theres the Pilates place thats opened on North X Road. I looked at the prices of the one on NorthX road and was frankly shocked at how expensive it is, The FH one is slightly less.  Made me decide to stick with classes in The local authority gym
    • Dulwich Village update: The old DVillage location is (again?) under offer. The storefront next to the new grocer is going to open as a yoga and pilates studio...the name of which I've forgotten. 🤦‍♂️  Megan's is starting to push its takeaway coffee and cannibalise some of Redemption Coffee's market share. Is Megan's struggling? It's quite a big restaurant they have and rent cant be cheap. The reinventing of the Megan's branch on Lordship Lane as Ollie's seems to have stalled. And Redemption is looking a bit tired these days...
